摘要

目的本研究的目的是探索解决埃塞俄比亚Awi和Gumuz社区之间基于种族的冲突的土著冲突解决机制。设计/方法/方法本研究采用了定性研究方法,并采用了适合收集有关解决冲突的土著机制的深入信息的案例研究设计Awi族和Gumuz族之间。数据是通过深入访谈和文件审查收集的。调查结果显示,阿维族和古木兹族通过长老会或希米吉利纳解决冲突。这一土著机制冲突解决机制得到了阿维族和古木兹族的广泛认可、接受和尊重。Shimiglina有不同的阶段和仪式,最终以kale mehala(誓言)或承诺不报复和伤害结束。阿维族和古木兹族认为希米吉利纳是一个重要而有效的冲突解决机制。实践意义这项研究清楚地表明了对政策、实践和未来研究的重要意义。长期以来,Awi和Gumuz社区一直利用长老会(shimiglina)来解决基于种族的冲突。因此,应在不同级别(国家、区域和地方)制定政策框架,将长老理事会与正式司法系统结合起来。换言之,这一解决土著冲突的机制应该得到适当的组织和制度化。然而,应该进行一项全面的研究,以了解如何组织和制度化这一土著冲突解决机制。独创性/价值这是一项独创性研究,通过发现土著知识在解决冲突和建设和平中的作用,为建设和平做出了贡献。

Exploring indigenous conflict resolution mechanisms between the Awi and Gumuz ethnic communities in Zigem Woreda, Ethiopia
Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore indigenous conflict resolution mechanisms for resolving ethnic-based conflicts between the Awi and Gumuz communities in Ethiopia. Design/methodology/approach This study followed a qualitative research approach and it has a case study design that is appropriate to collect in-depth information about indigenous mechanisms of resolving conflicts that arise between Awi and Gumuz ethnic groups. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and document review. Findings The results revealed that the Awi and Gumuz ethnic groups resolve conflict through the elder council or shimigilina. This indigenous mechanism conflict resolution mechanism is well recognized, accepted and respected both by the Awi and Gumuz ethnic groups. Shimiglina has different phases and rituals which are finally concluded by kale-mehala (oath) or promising not to take revenge and harm. The Awi and Gumuz ethnic groups view shimigilina as a vital and effective conflict resolution mechanism. Practical implications This study clearly indicated important implications for policy, practice and future research. The Awi and Gumuz communities have used the elders’ council (shimiglina) to solve ethnic-based conflicts for a long time. Therefore, there should be policy frameworks at different levels (national, regional and local) for the integration of the elders’ council with the formal justice system. Put in other words, this indigenous conflict resolution mechanism should be properly organized and institutionalized. However, a comprehensive study should be conducted to understand how to organize and institutionalize this indigenous conflict resolution mechanism. Originality/value This is an original study that contributes to peacebuilding by discovering the role of indigenous knowledge in conflict resolution and peacebuilding.
